Thyroid hormone increases fibroblast growth factor receptor expression and disrupts cell mechanics in the developing organ of corti

Abstract: BackgroundThyroid hormones regulate growth and development. However, the molecular mechanisms by which thyroid hormone regulates cell structural development are not fully understood. The mammalian cochlea is an intriguing system to examine these mechanisms, as cellular structure plays a key role in tissue development, and thyroid hormone is required for the maturation of the cochlea in the first postnatal week.ResultsIn hypothyroid conditions, we found disruptions in sensory outer hair cell morphology and fewe… Show more

“…This may suggest that VEGF inhibition occurred more strongly in cases with hypothyroidism [5]. Furthermore, there are several reports that the thyroid hormone is involved in the activation of FGFR [20][21][22][23], and lenvatinib has a strong inhibitory activity on FGFR [6]. Therefore, lenvatinib may be involved both in the onset of hypothyroidism and the long-term progression-free survival.…”

“…It is also possible to verify an insufficient formation and changes in microtubule stability with the rise of filamentous actin expression, which increases the stiffness and decreases the cell membrane mass. These changes directly affect the cochlear amplification process (28).…”

“… 9 Alteration of thyroid hormones led to a decrease in acetylated tubulin immunofluorescence in supporting pillar and Deiters’ cells, and disrupted cell mechanics in the developing organ of Corti. 10 More recently, a report demonstrated that the reduction in acetylated α-tubulin labeling in the pillar cells in early postnatal stages was linked to mechanism of gjb2 -related hearing loss. 11 In the mammalian cochlea, the widespread expression of acetylated tubulin at different stages has been obtained, suggesting its expression in normal cochlea was related to the development.…”
